Our touch table, My Gallery 対話型 (Interactive), premiered in Osaka, Japan at the Knowledge Capital Trial Event. Thousands of visitors were able to participate in the curatorial process first-hand by creating their own favorite collections. Visitors were able to touch a photograph, enlarge or shrink it with their fingers, select their favorite photographs to create a collection and then title the collection. Their collections were then projected on a tile wall display composed of 24 monitors!

Don’t worry MOPA members and visitors, you will have an opportunity to experience our collection through interactive technology. My Gallery 対話型 is a pilot to a larger touch table interactive that will be created for MOPA’s galleries in 2012.

For now, enjoy the photos and video and get a sneak peak of what will be coming to MOPA soon!
